AbstractBackingMapManager

init

Called by a CacheService to indicate to this manager that the manager is being associated with the CacheService. This method is called once immediately upon the startup of the CacheService, before any NamedCache objects are created by the CacheService.

Important note: BackingMapManager cannot be assosiated with more then one instance of a CacheService. However, in a situation when a CacheService automatically restarts, it is possible that this manager instance is re-used by a newly created (restarted) CacheService calling this method once again providing a new context.

instantiateBackingMap

Instantiate a [thread safe] Map that should be used by a CacheService to store cached values for a NamedCache with the specified name.

If the contents of the Map can be modified by anything other than the CacheService itself (e.g. if the Map automatically expires its entries periodically or size-limits its contents), then the returned object must implement the ObservableMap interface.
